Opening our Richmond, VA hub has been one of the best thrills of our year! We were blessed to connect with Chantel & her now hubby, Jake last year. When they asked Mostly Becky to help plan their event, we could hardly contain ourselves! They are the best couple! 

See more of them here. 

We cannot wait to share more of their big day with you. But for now, enjoy their beautiful day in downtown Richmond, VA. 

TAKE A LOOK! 

Jamie & Jeff Okoboji Iowa

Jamie and Jeff were married at Lakeshore Center at Okoboji in Okoboji, Iowa. The camp was a place they both loved and spent time. Jamie's family summers on Okoboji so it only made sense for them to get married here.

When I first met Jamie I felt her sweet demeanor instantly, she is someone you are comfortable with almost immediately.

She has gorgeous taste!

Her daily style spilled into her wedding details. She chose sage, whites, and soft pinks for her color palette And it was simply stunning, just like her.

The girls got ready at Bridges Bay Resort, where most of the guests stayed for the weekend. What we loved about this mini destination wedding, was most guests turned it into a weeknd getaway for their friends and family. What a fun way to celebrate!

Jeff, simply put, he is the kindest person you will ever meet. I could tell just how crazy he was about Jamie the moment I saw them together.  He is sweet, considerate, hospitable and such a gentleman to everyone. They are perfect together!

After the ceremony, the bridal party floated away on their "party boat" to meet their guests at the cocktail hour.

The party moved to the Majestic Pavilion at Arnold's Park for the remainder of the evening. This stunning venue didn't need much to make it beautiful. In the heart of Okoboji its charm and lake views speak for itself nestled into Arnold's Park.

The picture perfect spot was perfect for Jeff & Jamie!

Cocktails and dinner were served at the Majestic Pavilion at Arnold's Park, where we danced the night away with Brass Menagerie from Minneapolis. The night was filled with so much laughter and joy.

This union was really one we will never forget!

Leah- Des Moines Wedding Assistant

We have more amazing news to share with you!!! Leah has joined the Mostly Becky family in Des Moines and we are pumped! 

desmoines-wedding-assistant-mostly-becky-weddings

This year we have been so blessed to be able to grow our team here in Des Moines. After many interviews, we knew Leah was in the running right away. Her eloquent demeanor and inquisitive questions, we knew she was a very bright girl. Her upbeat personality, sweet words, and eagerness to learn solidified our impression of her. She was lovely from the first second. But, that isn't all. We knew she was family oriented, a hard worker, and eager to learn! (Gosh, we do love that!) 

Leah or more commonly known as, Nook Nook. (I mean how cute is that?!) <3 Teaches dance and her dance students call her this, so you can too. ;)

desmoines-wedding-assistant-mostly-becky-weddings

She loves Mac n' cheese, pizza and Pitbulls. If she could eat anywhere in Des Moines she would pick Blaze for pizza and Jethros for mac n' cheese. But, she eats more than comfort food! She loves cantaloupe and strawberries, too! 

AND GUYS...

She loves to travel!! - I mean, of course she does! Her favorite place to travel is NASHVILLE! - YES!!! We love Nash, and Denver, and NYC... well, you get it. She is a perfect fit for us! 

She shops at Target - <3 Hobby Lobby <3 - Rue 21 <3 - Dry Goods

If you find her at Starbucks, she'll be drinking a strawberry drink. I mean, she does love strawberries so... her current favorite Strawberry Acai Refresher.

She loves Michael Kors purses. - (we think that is a great choice!) We cannot go a day without our purses, but Leah cannot go without mascara and perfume. - Staples if you ask us! ;)

We are just so happy to have this sweet spirit on our team. Keep up with her on Facebook & Instagram

 

Welcome to the team Leah! We are just so happy you are here.

Zach & Elizabeth Cedar Rapids, Iowa

Sometimes when you meet someone you just know. You know they were meant to be together, you know they love each other. One of the best parts of planning weddings is getting to see this over and over.

The first time I met Zach and Liz their welcoming spirit was contagious. Everyone around them feels it! They are kind, generous and most of all fun! With these two we couldn't have anything but a beautiful wedding day! We organized and designed this amazing day in Cedar Rapids, IA. The beautiful Ceremony was in the backyard of Zach's grandparents home. We danced the night away at the Downtown Double Tree in Cedar Rapids. We could not have done this without the help of all the amazing vendors!
